A better Android app that allows to rate content
Existing app is a good companion, but it could be better. I think the only thing that can be improved is the way you rate content in the app. For example, if you want to rate an episode, you need to click that episode and it will open the listing on the web page (which is actually bugged, scrolling doesn't work sometimes). Instead, you can create a new UI for the episode and any other content that can be rated.

Share rating to Twitter and not only the "I just watched"
Share rating to Twitter, like "I just rated <any content> as <good, bad, etc.>" or something like that, which is something that Trakt actually does. This could increase the Twitter people interest on Simkl.

Auto drop series after x time
A feature to put series that the users haven't watched after a while to "dropped" this would make the "dropped" status used much more.
Best way would be to let the user decide the "time limit" and if the user wants it or not. It should also only count series that have new aired episodes that the user haven't watched to avoid problems when waiting for a new season.

Mobile Website vs the Mobile App
The mobile website is very aesthetically pleasing to look at but the app is so bland and boring by comparison, I included a side by side pic. Itd be nice if the app was updated to look like the mobile site. Also, please add a way for us to update our watching from the homepage of the mobile site. Currently on the mobile site you have to tap on a show and go to another page to update your watched episodes but we should be able to do that right from the homepage. Underneath each show on the Watch Next…

Right now you can add the website to your Home screen which will work as an app on your phone. Here’s how:
iPad or iPhone
Launch Safari app. *Please note that this does not work from the “Chrome” app.Enter into the address field the https://simkl.com URL of the website you want to create a shortcut to. Tap Go.
Tap the icon featuring a right-pointing arrow coming out of a box along the top of the Safari window to open a drop-down menu.
Tap Add to Home Screen. The “Add to Home” dialog box will appear, with the icon that will be used for this website on the left side of the dialog box.
Enter the name for the shortcut using the on-screen keyboard and tap Add. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPad’s desktop.

Implement a Numeral system in our lists in order for us to rank our item(anime,serie or film depending on the list) from most liked toleast
What I want is to be able to make a rank list in each of my lists of anime, series, and films in order to differentiate the ones I like most from the ones I like least, it would only need to be implemented a numeral system in our list so we can rank up or animes, series and films just in our lists in order to differentiate for example two 10 scores from top 1 to top 2 in my list everything in the ranking system would remain the same. see image for better explanation

More info on ended or cancelled shows
After I end a season of a show first thing I want to know is will there be another season.. perhaps a like to sites like ismyshowcancelled.com or similar. Maybe even a feed back on should it be cancelled or why was it cancelled.
Also on web page that asks for rating.. why can’t you link to the show directly to give it the rating.. or rate right there..
Also need choice to remove anime something I don’t use.
35 votesTVDB does not contain such data (full description why the show was canceled). I’ve contacted ismyshowcancelled for additional info if we can use their data. Will see if they agree to share it.

Full support for Spanish language and Bilingual content
Spanish is the fastest growing language in the USA and is also one of the fastest growing languages in the world. A great deal of this content is available with English audio or subtitles.
Many streaming platforms are adding a lot of Spanish and/or Bilingual content (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, etc.) due to the increase in market share.
This is a great way to increase both Simkl's content and user base!
With more than 37 million speakers, Spanish is by far the most spoken non-English language in the U.S. today among people ages 5 and older. It is also one of…1 vote -
Android widget with to do list
Can we get an android widget that can give us quick access to our list of shows that are left to be watch.

TV Show Faves had this option and now that they are shutting down this was the option i really liked and not many others offer this.6 votes -
